Indexing
There are occasional clues that the publishers were
conscious that indexing was a problem to be thought about;
what indexes should be provided, and how they should be
arranged. Two examples of explanations:-
INDEX / TO ESSAYS, DISSERTATIONS, and HISTORICAL PASSAGES. /
[three stars] All the Leading Names of the OBITUARY
are distinctly entered in the / "Index to the
Essays."
The obituaries are frequently long essays. Having checked
a couple, but only a couple, the names are duplicated in
essay and name indexes.
INDEX TO NAMES. / [three stars] The Names of Persons
noticed in the "Compendium of County History," are
not included in this Index.
Clearly it was felt that the compendium entries would
'clog up' the name index.
